2023 Kina Open

(29-30 April 2023)

 

The 2023 Kina Open is just 6 weeks away and the Open team are busily seeking sponsors, prizes

and other support to make this year's event the best it can be. Course preparations are well underway, these include bigger and better cart paths for this year's event.

The entry fee is unchanged at just $60 for the 2 days (Sat & Sun). This includes twos and of course

the famous Kina on-course BBQ, kindly sponsored this year by Bradley Nuttall Nelson.

​

Our new improved overnight stay capacity in our ridgeline park-over space is proving very

popular. Bookings for this during the Open are just $15 per night (that's a 50% discount for entrants)

Stay bookings and Kina Open entries and enquiries by email to teeup@tasmangolfclub.com
